Kairos Minerals (ASX: KAI) has uncovered a significant new gold zone — dubbed the ‘Monster’ — at its Mt York Gold Project in Western Australia’s Pilbara region.
A standout intercept returned 53 metres at 1.45 grams per tonne of gold from a depth of 212 metres, northwest of the existing Main Hill resource.
This area had never been drilled before and is now believed to be part of a new structural zone — likely a fold flexure or closure in the banded iron formation — which could materially expand the existing 1.4 million-ounce resource at Mt York’s Main Trend.
Stage 1 drilling is aimed at extending high-grade shoots and lifting overall resources, ahead of a planned Mineral Resource Estimate update in the second half of 2025.
Kairos' managing director Dr Peter Turner said: "We remain confident Mt York will become one of the Pilbara’s –and Western Australia’s– largest undeveloped gold resources with clean metallurgy, once drilling is complete.”
More drill results are expected throughout August and September.
